  6. NuPECC/ Long Range Plan • NuPECC meeting @ CERN : 10-11 of March Mini-workshop Friday Morning opening by Eckhart Elsen Visits to ALICE and ISOLDE Important that someone represent ISOLDE in NuPECC • Long Range Plan: approved in The NuPECC Lisbon Meeting 16-17 June Launch LRP in Brussels 27th of November

  7. AGATA @ ISOLDE (June 2017) • AGATA steering committee suggested exploring the option for in-beam g-ray spectroscopy with AGATA coupled to the HIE-ISOLDE accelerator after the CERN long shutdown 2. A "White Book" with the physics that will be done with AGATA during the 10 year time period from 2021 to 2030. Five facilities are considered to be of interest for hosting AGATA during this period: GANIL/SPIRAL1/SPIRAL2, GSI/FAIR, HIE-ISOLDE, JYFL and LNL/SPES. Unique opportunity to exploit the potential of reaccelerated HIE-ISOLDE beams with the position sensitive g-ray tracking array due to improved energy resolution up to 10 MeV/u and increased detection efficiency.

Building 508 (115+ 507+601) • Started 2013: Packed material, removed Asbestos, desclassifybuilding 115 • Asbestos: Desamiantage of bat 601 and 115 finished 5 July 2013 • Demolition: 14th July – 5th of August 2013 • Drains and waternetworks: 5th August – 31st of August • New accesstothe hall • Summer 2013 thelayout of thebuildingdefined: • Building 508 layout: • The new building 508 Light metal structure with 2 concrete floors: • Total surface 864m2 Ground floor (only accessible from within the classified area): 432 m2 - Solid state, Laser labs and workshop First floor (accessible from outside the classified area): 432m2 - Data Acquisition rooms - Meeting room/Visitors Center - Kitchen - Isolde Control Room October 2013 June 2013

  17. Timeline & Budget (as October 2013) Total costs light structure building 508 (incl. ICR & services): 1.8MCHF (October 2013) Includes Infrastructure: CV • Approved budget: 600kCHF for consolidation 350kCHF for LS1 400kCHF by PH dept.1.35MCHF (without control room) • New Isolde Control room: 185 kCHF by BE+EN dept.Extra costs light structure building: 200kCHF by GS dept385kCHF Missing=65kCHF TIMELINE: • Finished 2014. CV TOO Expensive (Onlygroundfloor. No!!!

  18. FutureProspects • HIE-ISOLDE phase 3: Angela conversation with Fabiola at the beginning of July crucial. • IMPORTANT TO KEEP the team of experts. • Create a working group to look and the original project. • Automatic LN2 filling installation in the hall. (LS2). • New large instrumentation :ISS, HiFi(HiE-ISOLDE Fragment Identifier, AGATA? • Boost study of safety to be able to profit from the higher intensity of LINAC4. • Following up on the Beam Dumps • Storage Ring plans for the future.
